    Hopefully DCarr won't mind me borrowing one of his "scarier" pieces- it's my favorite of his creations.

    Scary, and funny as hell, too. image

    I wish the Mainers had adopted that design. Of course his real one was nice, too.

    I hosted a Slick Vicky Contest over on the Darkside in March.

    Used that coin for my entry. Wasn't sure if anybody could top it or not. They could. I lost the challenge.

    Seriously, tho', I've always used this remedy that TexasNationals posted- and I agree- it's always worked.

    But I seldom need it because I learned how to control all but the most severe cases of hiccups with a little mind-over-body exercise and breathing.

    This might be more funny than scary, but "The crisis" (over slavery) DID demand his election as president.

    Thanks, here is the "official" narrative for that coin:

    "Large Lobster is on the loose. And he is mad. Someone beaned him on the head with an anchor. And now that person is going to be on the receiving end of a round of applause emanating from Large Lobster's giant claws."

    Sorry guys I forgot that it was ugly coins we were talking about, not just ugly, lol. But if that did not cure his hicups I don't think anything will.

    Here is a actual ugly coin, sorta.. I think it's counterfeit so I guess it is not really a "coin".

    A spooky coin to be sure, but very interesting. I'd love to own one. I just love Colonials. To bad that I'm about 40 years too late in trying to collect them.... I was looking through my brother's 1970 Black Book of coin values....sure wish that I could order from it, even inflation adjusted. For example: Pine Tree Shilling $70, Cont. Dollar $175...
